T4ANIP Ex 04 Bouncing ball (Ping Pong ball)

University of Portsmouth - Animation Yr. 1 - Animation Principles

In this exercise we were asked to make another ball animation. The first ball was a tennis ball, and the second one needed to be a ping pong ball. 

I decided to draw the animation of the second ball on the same paper of my first animation. This helped in comparing the two balls and also saved paper.

Planning the animation:

In the following video we can see the difference in the behavior of each ball (the ping pong ball is shaded). We can clearly see that the ping pong ball is not as bouncy and does not stretch and squash as much as the tennis ball because of the material that it's made of.
